You know that is a load of crap.It's designed for short term relief and that is what the majority of cases turn out to be. The problem lies not with welfare but with the unstable job market. Most people who move from welfare to work end up in unstable low level jobs that don't last long.

Maybe they just didn't manage their assets correctly. You know, personal responsibility and rugged individualism.
I'm sorry I jumped on the wrong part of the topic here: Kudos Steve for doing a "Good Thing". That girl will remember you and your family for many years, I'm sure. I echo Dave's suggestion to: See if you can assist in getting her involved in some local education group like 4H, GSA, etc
As did I. Yes, Steve, good job but we all already know you have a good heart. =)

Good job with the computer, Steve. Let's hope that this young student will find a way to break out from the mold her mother has created and become a successful individual. I have seen it happen with other kids.
Well, Clinton got more credit for Welfare to Workfare. But you know, all those moms driving new DeVilles.

Good for you , Steve, for trying to make a difference in someones life. I know that things for you and your family haven't been all roses lately, and that if you had sold the LT you could have put the money to good use. Whether or not it made or will make a difference in the young girls life, you will probably never know, but I'm sure it has made a difference in yours, and that's something to be proud of.
